    Default Any other machinists here?

    There any place where machinists chill in the front range? Would be nice to talk shop sometimes with people who know what a pair of calipers are.

    Don?t be a snob. I?m not a machinist but I?m familiar with things like calipers, micrometers, dial indicators, etc. I even know the difference between horizontal, vertical, and axial.

    I would be a little surprised if there was a bar where machinists got together for drinks.

    You might have better luck finding some gun guys to hang out with.

    Calipers? Those are the things the barber uses to cut my hair right?

    A few machinists from Ball used to hang out at joint on South Golden Rd, about 25 yrs ago. Don't remember the name then but believe it is still there.

    By location I think Rock Rest. Just seems like it was different name back then.

    Seems like there used to be a bar between the two back in the day, but I'm drawing a blank.

    After some thought I think you might be right but...

    I also remember it was closer to 30 years ago and the liquor flowed pretty freely during that time...
